@RaymondLim
Instead of just dropping patterns that aren't defined in the Preferences file as an array, could we allow them by just returning the single pattern?
For example, instead of returning an empty string here, could we just
return filter;in the line above? That would allow a user to specify a single pattern (ie. without the array notation) in the Preferences file like this:"fileFilters": [ { "name": "JS files", "patterns": "*.js" } ]There was a problem hiding this comment.

@bchintx I think we should enforce the consistency of our preferences format and data type. Otherwise, we may end up with complicated code that handles multiple data types. For example, how about multiple filter strings without the
[]? I know that multiple strings will break the JSON file, but it's possible that someone may mistakenly create a filter set with no enclosing brackets. So instead of handling one extra case, I'd rather enforce the correct data format and data type.There was a problem hiding this comment.
